Chapter 438: An Old Horse Still in
the Stable Before the Lord of Mist left, Feng Qi took out 20% of the remaining blood crystals.
After the Lord of Mist left, Feng Qi also began to deploy the construction of the Star City space channel.
Unlike the space rift created by tearing the space, this time he wanted to build a stable space channel, which has higher technical requirements than directly tearing the space.
In order to ensure that this space channel is completed as soon as possible, Feng Qi began to mobilize the forces of various parts of Star City to coordinate and speed up the progress of the project.
The first place he found was the energy department of Star City.
The stable space teleportation array is not a one-time deal. The teleportation array needs to be kept open at all times, which requires continuous access to energy.
Therefore, the first step in building a stable space channel is to build an energy transmission pipeline that connects to the space teleportation array.
Feng Qi has already prepared for this step.
He specially planned an independent energy supply station in the eastern suburbs of Star City.
This energy supply station has always been in a state of suspension, just waiting for the start of the space teleportation array construction plan.
After explaining the situation to the person in charge of the energy agency, the construction of the energy pipeline officially started.
In addition, Feng Qi successively found the heads of the Star City Construction Department, the Star City Water Conservancy Department, and the Scarlet Materials Department... After everything was ready, the huge space teleportation array construction plan was officially launched.
Decades of accumulation of space technology came in handy at this time.
But Feng Qi knew in his heart that the construction of a stable space teleportation array would be a huge challenge.
The technology of directional tearing of space rifts accumulated in the previous decades is very different from the construction of a stable space teleportation array, and the technical difficulty is more than one level higher.
In terms of space technology, humans have experienced decades of development, but it is only in the initial stage.
Even the "space technology major" was only opened in the Dawn Academy in the past ten years.
In the future, human space technology will continue to improve under the impetus of this group of rising stars in the Dawn Academy.
In the following days, Feng Qi often went to the eastern suburbs of Star City to observe the construction progress of the stable space teleportation array.
This project can accumulate a lot of space transmission knowledge for Star City.
It is also the first step to establish a close relationship with the Mist Clan.
In the future, the two clans will exchange resources and support each other, and there will be broad room for development in the future.
Perhaps he who is on this sacrificial line will not see all this, but there will be another him who will see the prosperity he hopes for in the future 1,500 years later.
Five years later.
Feng Qi, who is already 72 years old, lies on the operating table of the Scarlet Research Institute.
At this time, his hair is already gray, and there is more fatigue and a bit of old age between his eyebrows.
After all these years of hard support, his body has finally reached its limit.
Just today, he decided to inject himself with a gene needle.
"Sister Wei, my life is in your hands. Don't shake your hands during the operation."
Hearing this, Wei Wei glanced at him:
"Don't worry, you won't die."
As she said, Wei Wei slowly pushed the anesthetic into Feng Qi's blood vessels.
After a short wait, a strong sense of fatigue came over him, and Feng Qi fell into a deep sleep.
Next, Wei Wei began the operation.
At this time, Feng Qi's body could no longer support normal operation. In addition to using gene needles to increase the activity of the body, some organs also had to be replaced.
At this time, Feng Qi could no longer withstand much tossing, but Wei Wei performed the operation quickly, and many movements had formed muscle memory, which was both fast and stable.
After an unknown amount of time, Feng Qi slowly opened his eyes and heard the "beeping" sound of the instrument running.
Looking up at the eight hanging mechanical arms, he felt that everything in front of him became clear, and he could even hear the sound of his heart beating.
Turning his head to the side, he saw Wei Wei's lips slightly parted, leaning on the edge of the bed and sleeping.
Looking at the instrument screen next to Wei Wei, which recorded the operation time, he realized that four days had passed.
It was obvious that Wei Wei had been performing a life-saving operation for him for four days without sleep.
As if she had noticed something was happening, Wei Wei opened her eyes at this time, and then suddenly raised her upper body and stared at him with a slightly confused look.
"Sister Wei, thank you very much."
Hearing Feng Qi's thanks, Wei Wei's face showed a carefree smile, and she stood up and patted his shoulder:
"Xiaoqi, is my sister Wei's skills okay? Do you feel like you have been reborn?"
"Superb skills, simply perfect." He responded decisively.
"Take good care of your current body. I have replaced the �Manganese 篘牟糠 system�, but it can only keep your body healthy for a period of time. How long it can last depends on whether your body will deteriorate further. As for the mental trauma, I can't do anything, so whether it can last until the establishment of the Dawn Army is still unknown."
"Understood..."
After chatting with Wei Wei for a long time, Feng Qi stopped disturbing Wei Wei's rest and said goodbye and left the Scarlet Research Institute.
In the following days, Feng Qi clearly felt that his body had improved.
The occasional coughing gradually decreased, and the frequent fatigue also disappeared.
Only the impact of the overlapping memories, which could not be relieved by drugs, occasionally made him fall into the vortex of memories.
Under his supervision, the construction of the huge space teleportation array progressed steadily.
At this stage, a 100-meter-high semicircular space stone has been erected in the eastern suburbs of Xingcheng, and the first step of the teleportation array project has been completed.
There will be many challenges in the next construction work.
Feng Qi envisions that the construction of a stable space teleportation array will be completed within 20 years.
During this period, the little guy came back.
Compared with the little guy in his memory, Feng Qi found that the little guy had a bit more determination between his eyebrows and had obviously matured a lot.
He hadn't cooked for a long time, so he cooked a table of dishes for the little guy. At
this time, Feng Qi was surprised to find that the well-behaved little guy in his memory had actually learned to drink on the front line.
In response to his inquiry, the little guy said with a guilty conscience that it was for courage at the front.
Feng Qi did not reprimand him.
The child will eventually grow up and have his own life choices, and he is more of a guide.
Moreover, with the physical fitness of the little guy, drinking will not cause any harm to his body at all.
After this short reunion, the little guy will return to the front line again.
Before leaving, the little guy gave him a pendant.
This pendant was a trophy obtained by the little guy on the front line. There are two of them, which are carried by the patriarch of a certain field.
This pendant has a peculiar effect. The wearer can sense the changes in the mood and physical condition of another wearer.
Before leaving, the little guy said:
"With this pendant, Uncle Qi can sense me all the time, so as not to be frightened all day long."
After the little guy left, Feng Qi's life went on as usual.
With age, the new body after the operation entered the twilight stage again.
Feng Qi was prepared for this, and could only take care of his body more often and let himself last as long as possible.
...
Fifteen years later.
It was dawn, and the mist and rain enveloped the East District
of Xingcheng. Feng Qi leaned on the rooftop chair of Hupo Research Institute. In front of him was a transparent floor-to-ceiling glass more than one meter high, which overlooked the scenery of the East District of Xingcheng.
His turbid eyes were full of desire for life.
Xingcheng is developing rapidly. Many high-rise buildings in the distance were planned by him personally. Now they have been built, bringing new prosperity and vitality to Xingcheng, but he is already old.
"Ahem..."
The cough that burst out from his throat made Feng Qi bend over.
After a long time, he spread out his palm and found that there was a touch of crimson on the palm of his hand, which was shocking.
He took a deep breath and cast his eyes on the tablet on his knees.
It was the news sent back from the front-line supply area in the West District of Xingcheng.
The banner photo on the front page of the news was a handsome and sunny figure, waving his hands to the camera, as if proudly telling him that I have completed another challenge.
A relieved smile appeared on Feng Qi's face.
The little guy did not let him down.
That year, the little guy resolutely chose to go to the front line. He was worried that the little guy would die in the process of growing up.
Facts have proved that the little guy is very strong.
In the first year of the front line, the little guy often called and cried on the phone to talk about the cruelty of the front line.
He still clearly remembered that the little guy was crying and telling his friend that he had died in the war during the video call. He comforted him for a long time before he calmed down.
Suddenly, so many years have passed.
The naive little kid back then has grown into a leader who can stand on his own.
The reputation of the Qiwen War Group has spread throughout the five major cities, and it is also known as another rising star of mankind after the Dawn War Group.
The little guy has also begun to challenge the title of the top ten war gods of the era.
Everything is renewed, and everything is developing in a good direction, but he is like an old dog from the last era, and can only survive in this new era in a dying way.
At this moment, a video call box popped up on the tablet.
Press "answer", and the boy with purple hair and purple eyes appeared in the center of the screen.
The first thing he said was:
"Aqi, you have to hold on, or I'll have to go back to Star City for dinner."
Feng Qi's face showed some helplessness, and he immediately said that he was in good health, and he could press you to the ground and rub you back and forth after opening his blood source...
After hanging up the condolence call from the Lord of Mist, Feng Qi looked up at the sky.
The hazy rain fell from the sky, moistening his cheeks, and he subconsciously squinted his eyes.
The sky was gray, and there was a faint flash of purple arcs in the rolling dark clouds.
Feng Qi's eyes gradually lost focus.
The influence of overlapping memories reappeared.
He seemed to have walked the path of every sacrifice line again, and the moment he closed his eyes, tears fell from his turbid eyes.
It was like walking in the old times, time slowed down, the sound of the wind meeting in the air echoed in his ears, and the sound of the drizzle hitting the glass seemed to drip into his heart, rippling.
Over the years, he has not stopped moving forward.
But this body was like a boat with a hole in it. Seeing the other side approaching, he paddled hard to touch it, but could only watch the boat slowly sink.
He took the enhanced gene injection again.
But the main effect of the gene injection is anti-aging, and his physical problems are essentially unrelated to aging.
"It was fun to pretend to be cool back then, but now..."
Feng Qi shook his head helplessly after coming to his senses, and then couldn't help coughing again.
At this time, there was a sound of a door being pushed open behind him, and he turned his head to look.
The person who came was a man about 30 years old. He had a beard, a tattoo of the Dawn Flag on his right arm, a broken bone necklace like a trophy hanging around his neck, a pair of sharp eyes, and a red battle blade behind him.
"Mr. Feng." The man came to Feng Qi and bowed his head respectfully to greet him.
Feng Qi nodded slightly.
The man's name was "Gu Sha", he was Gu Ke's adopted son, and he was originally an orphan in the orphanage in the East District of Xingcheng.
"Mr. Feng, I will protect you from now on." Gu Sha said softly at this time.
Hearing this, Feng Qi was subconsciously stunned:
"Where is Uncle Gu?"
His current body can no longer withstand any tossing, but the blue-skinned assassins will occasionally appear to assassinate him, so usually Gu Ke will guard him and help him resist the blue-skinned creatures that may appear.
"He... is old, and he has many physical illnesses left on the front line. After being transformed into a rune warrior, his life span was further squeezed. Now he is a little unable to do it. I have taken over from my father and become your guardian."
Hearing this, Feng Qi sighed in his heart.
"Can you still hold on?"
"Father said he wanted to compete with you to see who can hold on longer, and asked me to tell you that you must not lose."
Feng Qi smiled and nodded:
"I still have a few bottles of special wood spirit liquid wine sent by the little guy from the front line in my room. Send them to Uncle Gu when you have time. I will beat him to death."
Hearing this, Gu Sha's face showed difficulty:
"Feng Lao, father developed a habit of drinking on the front line, but now his health is getting worse day by day, so it's better for him to drink less."
Feng Qi smiled and shook his head:
"It doesn't matter. Uncle Gu has been busy at the Scarlet Research Institute for his whole life. It's time to enjoy himself after retirement. How long he lives has no meaning to him. Enjoying the future is what he should do now."
"Okay, send it to him when you have time."
After a brief surprise, Gu Sha understood Feng Qi's idea and nodded immediately.
The drizzle had wet his clothes, and Feng Qi continued to overlook the scenery of Star City, with no intention of leaving.
Gu Sha stood behind him, accompanying him silently.
He knew clearly how great the old man in front of him was.
After countless sacrifices and struggles, the old man never gave up even if he suffered painful torture.
He clearly remembered his father's evaluation of the old man.
He said:
The greatest luck of our human race is to have Fengqi, a pioneer.
The Scarlet Crisis, the Night Shadow Tribe Crisis, the Silver Moon Tribe Crisis, the truth of the Institute of Science and Technology... This man has encountered too many setbacks that we have never seen along the way.
Xingcheng can now safely usher in explosive development, thanks to Fengqi's layout and efforts.
Although he has the special ability to start over countless times.
But the special ability did not give him the spirit of sacrifice to die calmly, did not give him the motivation to resist negative emotions again and again, and did not give him the determination to face the darkness even if there are thousands of people.
Throughout the ages, the saint in my heart is only him, Fengqi!
Looking at Fengqi, who was already drowsy, Gusha took off his coat and tried to shelter him from the rain.
At this time, Feng Qi opened his cloudy eyes and waved his hand gently:
"Don't bother, I'm just old, but I won't be killed by raindrops."
Hearing this, Gu Sha hesitated, and finally continued to stand behind Feng Qi obediently.
Feng Qi also closed his eyes again at this time.
His old body always makes him feel drowsy, and his energy is no longer what it used to be. He is no longer the young man who can stay up all night and be full of energy.
The raindrops hitting his skin brought weak feedback, and he used this way to feel the vitality of the outside world.
Unconsciously, sleepiness came over him.
His brows relaxed at this moment, and his expression gradually became peaceful...
Oh~ It hurts to write this.
